This book really kept me going the whole time. I listened to it on audiobook and I kept finding reasons to go for a walk or do the dishes so I could keep listen (I do not listen to audiobook while relaxing - my rule is that I have to be doing something physical at the same time). The characters are a mixed bag, some likeable, some not so much but it will be interesting to see where the author takes this. I didn't realise that this was supposed to be a trilogy and so I found the ending lacking somewhat - no all ends tied - but now I understand why. I guess I'll get more information in the next book. Look forward to doing that.
